Doug,

They must have some idea what the design guys are going to do, otherwise why bother? Or is this typically not true?

They know exactly, and design works very closely with process to get the models they need. These things are running hotter than ever, though. Leakage, saturation currents, transconductances, etc.. could be off due to poor temperature modeling in ranges never seen before.
